The classic strategy : Entry: Take a long position at the breakout of the resistance (blue) 1hour or 4hour closing Stop: The stop is placed blow the last lowest Target: Theoretical target of the pattern
Advantage: False breakouts are rare (only 16%) Disadvantage: Pullbacks are usual (60%) so it could be judicious to wait a pullback to take position
- The exit usually occurs towards 80% of the distance of the pattern.
- Sharping and strong breakouts give better performance
- The performance is better when the triangle is formed at the beginning of a trend
- Avoid taking a position if the breakout occurs before the 3 / 4 of the pattern
- Pullbacks are harmful for the performance of the pattern
